During the last week we have been blessed with the most extraordinary Artic Lights (Aurora Borealis) at around 8 p.m. A true privilege of life! Especially the one yesterday during my 6 mile run, which is part of my 5 day run a week to prepare for a 50 km Ultrarun next autumn. The temperature was around -10 C, but with the wind chill -15, but with a clear star studded sky. Suddenly the northern lights started their extraordinary show! This was indeed one of the most beautiful runs I have ever done and I was given this lightshow for almost the entire hour. I even managed to make it back to the cottage, grab the still camera and finally shoot a few good ones, thanks to a friend who have taught me how to take photos of this privileged happening! I find it hard to accurately describe this happening, but if I were to raise the level of word- and phrase use, I´d say it felt like I was nothing but a dusty speck on the mirror of Universe and once again, it made me realize the importance at living at full speed knowing life can end any minute!

The daughters are doing their last day at school today and I think they have done an excellent job in fitting in without any complaints. Sure, there´s still a way to go to fully understand Greenlandic, but most important they have nice friends and enjoy life fully. Me personally look forward to a break in the daily activity of living and picking up! Having said that, life is really, really slow right now.
